The ultimate record collector?

As someone who has wondered and who also frequented Paul Mawhinney's Record Rama shop many times over the years before he had to close, thanks for sharing the link to this story. It's interesting that the article omits any indication of what the Brazilian buyer paid Paul for the collection.

Hey, my parents loved Montovani, LOL!!

There’s a story in today’s Pittsburgh Post-Gazette that’s closely related to the NY Times story linked above. Here’s a link to the PG story:

Despite the sale of Mawhinney’s collection for “an undisclosed price” to the Brazilian collector, there are two other very large private record collections that still remain in Pittsburgh – at least for now.
